3 (walter) now two of those candidates have something *new to worry about. today, a judge in south florida will hear a case... about whether ted cruz and marco rubio are *eligible to run for president. it all comes down to the meaning of the phrase "natural born citizen"... and how it applies to both men. rubio was born in miami... to cuban immigrants... who weren't american citizens at the time. and cruz was born in canada... to an american mother, and a cuban-born father. the family moved to texas when cruz was four. a lawsuit claims both men

citizens... and claims that doesn't meet the requirements for the presidency. 3 (walter their rival, donald trump, will *be in florida this weekend. he has a rally planned at the university of central florida in orlando tomorrow. doors open at nine, and the event should start by noon... at the "c-f-e" arena. 3 (walter) developing this morning: a local congressman is taking on a tech giant. u-s representative "david that would *ban the government, from buying *apple fallout from apple's refusal to break into the i-phone belonging to the san bernardino shooters... and because of that, jolly says: taxpayers shouldn't support the company. 3 (jen jolly announced the proposed leglislation thursday morning. his bill would *ban *any federal agency from buying apple devices. the fbi wants apple to help them break into "syed farook's" locked i-phone... he's one of the san bernardino shooters. but the compnay says: it would have to create special software to do that. apple c-eo, tim cook, says: that

shows: drinking two glasses of red wine before bed... can help you lose weight. at least, that's what scientists at *harvard *medical school say. apparently, there's something in red wine that transforms fat into a form that's much easier to burn off... they studied women over a 13-year-span, and found those who drank two glasses of red wine daily, were 70-percent less likely to be overweight. so, what if you don't like wine? the same ingredient is in blueberries, strawberries and 3 grapes. cheers! 3 (jen) the "empress of *soul" proves she's all *heart. a police officer near salt lake city pulled-over a driver earlier this week, for speeding. in the passenger seat: gladys knight... yeah, *the gladys knight! officer mike roberts was star- struck... but managed to blurt out that it was his birthday. and guess what she did... she sang "happy birthday to him." and he melted.
